The word "apocalypse" comes from the Greek word meaning "a lifting of the veil or revelation," essentially relating the end of t

he world to a disclosure of knowledge or information. How does this definition of apocalypse relate to the end of the world within the story "By The Waters of Babylon" and how the characters within the story should proceed with their own knowledge?

Zanzabum

In this quote, Scout wants to highlight how difficult it was for a black man to get access to justice at the time. She tells us that Tom Robinson had been given "due process of law." This implies that Tom Robinson was treated fairly in the eyes of the law because he had had a lawyer and a trial.

However, Scout also highlights the fact that, besides these advantages, Robinson's trial was definitely not fair and just. In fact, he was harshly judged because of his skin colour, which many people took to be almost evidence of Robinson's guilt. Therefore, as Scout highlights, Tom had "lost" in front of his peers, and he was never able to gain support from people who were against him from the beginning. Tom had lost the case in the "secret court of men's heart."
